drm/i915: rename & update eb_select_ring()

'ring' is an old deprecated term for a GPU engine, so we're trying to
phase out all such terminology. eb_select_ring() not only has 'ring'
(meaning engine) in its name, but it has an ugly calling convention
whereby it returns an errno and stores a pointer-to-engine indirectly
through an output parameter. As there is only one error it ever returns
(-EINVAL), we can make it return the pointer directly, and have the
caller pass back the error code -EINVAL if the pointer result is NULL.

Thus we can replace
-	ret = eb_select_ring(dev_priv, file, args, &engine);
-	if (ret)
-		return ret;
with
+	engine = eb_select_engine(dev_priv, file, args);
+	if (!engine)
+		return -EINVAL;
for increased clarity and maybe save a few cycles too.
